33. Processing Information Best
People Process Infromation Best in Story Form Let me tell you a story! ... how people best process information             Beginning (introduce your setting, characters, and situation/conflict)             Middle (obstacle or conflict)             End (obstacle comes to climax and is resolved) The best stories create emotion and engage  the reader.   Stories can make dry information more memorable and interesting.   Stories can lead to casual leaps...and may fill in causation when none is there. If not all the information is given within a story our brains tend to fill in the gaps creating a causation.                "Once there was a young boy helping his mother cook dinner. She stepped away for just                         a minute and when she returned the mixing bowl had fallen on the floor."
